Friday marks as sad milestone.
It was 30 years ago that TWA Flight 800 exploded in midair off of Long Island minutes after taking off from John F. Kennedy International Airport en route to Paris

Shot down by an Iranian missile. Clinton ordered a coverup.
I can't tell you how I know till someone dies or releases me from my promise.
No. Iranian missiles fired by former Republican Guards turned mercenaries, and in the hire of a prominent Iranian family who wanted revenge for the shooting down of Iran Air flight 655 by the USS Vincennes.
Bill Clinton ordered a coverup and ordered evidence destroyed.
I worked with a guy whose sister witnessed what happened when it happened.
If it was hit by a missile, there would be an a approximation of a round hole. There is no round hole.
Two biggest problems with the Navy missile theory:
Item one: How do you keep a ship load of sailors quiet for thirty years? This can not be explained away. The stakes are high, but they would know the score. LOTS of ‘em are gonna talk. Immediately. You can’t arrange accidents and kill them all to keep ‘em quiet.
Item two: Recall the era. These were the days of the “peace dividends”. The zeitgeist of the clintonista regime was to divert military spending toward social engineering. If there was any truth to the Navy missile theory, the Clinton’s would have run with it. Bill “loathed the military” - (his very own written words)
I remember watching ABC news a few days after and they had a report showing a discarded launch tube from a shoulder fired missile that had washed up on the jersey shore. It disappeared after that. No more mention of it.
He was interviewed in a video I saw. He said it was a rocket contrail.
I tried to find the photo, but it appears to have been scrubbed from the Interwebs. I
Thank you for the input on this infamous day.
“Some” here (like me) also have tiny bits of information that will be stuck in our heads ‘till the day we die. Maybe longer.
“If it was hit by a missile, there would be an a approximation of a round hole. There is no round hole. “
You do not know much about surface to air or air to air missiles, do you?
What would it look like if it was hit with a missile?
Like the remains of TWA800...
They explode next to the target and send projectiles to tear apart the target.
similar to what happened in Oklahoma City. People saw McVeigh with a middle eastern looking man called John Doe number 2, then suddenly that info was scrubbed.
I remember that day clearly as I had just flown from Las Vegas to Dallas for a seminar at the Dallas ABC Radio studios. When I got to my hotel room that afternoon and turned on the TV set, the news about the plane was just breaking, and I recall the reporter talking about the possibility of a missile taking the plane out.
IIRC part of the story was the Prime Minister of Israel was on an EL AL 747 scheduled to depart JFK ahead of TWA 800. For some reason they pulled into a holding pad , and TWA 800 took off before them. That lends some credence to the advisory shot down from a manpad in a small boat that sped away after the shoot down.
If the US Navy errantly shot TWA down with a missile durning an exercise...that would be almost impossible to cover up with so many people involved.
An El Al flight was 2 planes in the flight path ahead TWA 800. It was supposed to take off in TWA 800 slot
YESSSSS! Thank you. It is sickening to know that the Big Lie continues 30 years later.
“Very similar to the COVID coverup which is ongoing.”
2020 election
Russia collusion
JFK assassination
Global warming
It goes on and on.
